All of them! Yay!

everyone of them multiple times lol its the only way i retain information lol

That reverb sound bed is a simple concept but a huge one!

[@soulcornerradio]

Disco, Funk genre? 🙂

Finding someone, with a smile every single day, that is ready to explain you all the music production techniques is very rare. I congratulate you man. ✌✌

@ 0:59 - "so they can develop over time". YES! I love it when it's smooth & doesn't really go anywhere. I've never ever liked the big epic breakdowns in traditional trance.

[@andrewfrenir]

Amen Brother! Always learn something new with your tutorials. Have a great time! Cheers!

[@gavinallen5745]

Will you are such an inspiration. I have loved music since birth, and always wanted to learn how to create EDM. Your videos are both educational but most importantly help with mental well being. Keep it up, love the style, enthusiasm and energy. ❤❤❤❤

[@DiscoTuna]

One of your best yet - love this super instructional style with really clear takeaways

[@EDMTips]

Cool….thanks for the feedback! Anything else in Particular you want to see me cover?

[@DiscoTuna]

@@EDMTips I love this building block idea for a specific genre, covering some key skills to use generally. It has a different spin to the "in the style of producer X" vids as it feels like it will be even more useful as more widely applicable. So a whole series like that would be awesome and I think go down a treat with your nearly 100k viewership (congrats imminent). More specifically I would like an equivalent vid in something a little harder like melodic / deep techno.

[@fishplant]

these videos are a fantastic insight into the technicalities that make all the difference... thank you and keep them coming please!

Fantastic video Will. This is what I was talking about. I started off as beginner in your channel but now I’m have quite some beginner knowledge and looking for the next level which you shows us today with syncopations, motif etc. Congratulations. Some next video ideas for you, how to make different instruments work together, how to write Melodies that doesn’t clash and how to choose correct sounds after initially using piano for sketching.

[@EDMTips]

Great suggestions! Thank you :)

[@Jvssvl]

@@EDMTips you’re most welcome. Just edited my comment a bit :)

[@RyanRhodes90]

A decade ago I tried to learn music production, but I simply didn’t have the dedication to work through mediocrity after months of trying to learn. Your videos have been incredibly inspiring and make me believe I can try to create music again thanks to your ability to clearly explain what I’ve been hearing. Thank you. This video is one of your best ever.

Been binging on your channel all week Will Have never wanted to invest in a high end laptop and Ableton more since seeing your vids. I used to do a lot of bootleg edits on Acid Pro and you're definitely reminding me of how much fun producing is Great work

[@54LZ]

Great video, man! Little mistake: You missed a blank in your chapter descriptions ("Transient Control07:26"), so it's not showing them properly.

[@EDMTips]

Thanks for the heads up, fixed now!

[@isaacanthonydj4124]

i like to add tiny bits of random LFO for certain perimeters on most of my sounds. adding tiny variations to different sounds usually isn't a bad thing, unless it's like the kick drum, which you obviously don't want changing.

[@isaacanthonydj4124]

where do you distinguish bass from sub base in Hz? approx?

[@jedsithor]

@@isaacanthonydj4124 Sub bass is basically below 60Hz with 50Hz generally being the "ideal" place to sit it though there are some mitigating factors such as the tone of the kick etc. If you want to use a mid bass with a separate sub bass then a good trick is to cut the mid bass at around 100Hz (and cut your synths, hats etc at 125-250), so leaving everything below 100 for the Kick and the bass (and maybe dip the kick little at around 110Hz to let the mid bass come through).

[@KeyserTheRedBeard]

Will! You are just simply awesome! Your videos are much appreciated. I have a question for you. I cannot fit SERUM on my computer because I ran out of space, so can you please tell me in your professional opinion, which Ableton device you would user for sub bass holds as a melodic bass follower? OPERATOR (or) ANALOG??? Thanks brother and have a BLESSED DAY!

Either would work just as well as the other!

cool channel! so you made an aux reverb channel and sent everything on the mix there? I mean drums, synths, effects.. or just the main instruments such as piano, plucks, pads? thnks

[@djmarcwest8813]

Only watched around 7 mins and already learned a lot.l! Excellent description of what is going on. Only feedback so far; when you are talking about adjusting the fade in to a drum sample within simpler, it may be worth explaining how you physically do this, so for people new to producing, they can continue to follow how you are creating those revised samples for the track. Hope that makes sense! Also how do you make the auxiliary sound bed for the track?

How do you make the SC channel? I tried as a midi channel but it wouldn't let me switch out to send only. Tried to do it as the other type but wouldn't let me write notes in. Im new sorry. Great tutorial!

[@larsb.nielsen4481]

Great Will, love it ! ❤ I whould like to ask if you know why the ableton compressor always "clicking" with very low threshold (specially with sidechain kick and bass ) ? It dosn't do this with a 3 rd party comprossor i think. Maybe its a "bug" in the ableton comprosser. What do you think ?

[@gbigbo_zjebeezjeboo]

Excellent !!

I guess bass staying on the root note is good for intro, then I would start changing it during the development phase of the track.
